How do you appeal or reverse Google Adsense TOS violation?

So because HubPages listed the requirements to qualify for the revenue program as having "one published hub" I applied after posting two hubs and was denied by Adsense for lack of content and now Im stuck with an Adsense TOS violation (that is what it displays in my account section tab on Hubpages). I would not have applied if, as I read on the forums after the fact, that you should wait and apply with 10+ hubs.. So how do I go about reversing the Adsense TOS violation so that I can reapply when I have ten hubs or more? Any idea why Hubpages doesn't just explain that bit of information up front? Sure would save a lot of frustration.

AdSense and the HubPages Earnings Program (HEP) are separate, though an AdSense ID is a requirement for many of the HEP programs (specifically the HubPages Ad Program, the HubPages eBay Program, and the HubPages Amazon Program). Users only need a PayPal account and a tax form to qualify for HEP. However, an AdSense ID is required for many of the earnings programs covered by HEP.

If you do not have an AdSense ID and are applying to AdSense for the first time, you should wait until you have 20 Hubs or so, as Writer Fox mentioned.

Ok great, I'll probably have the 10+ hubs soon enough, but in the meantime which specific HEP functions without Adsense and I will get that going, thats a good idea Christy but I couldn't find the Adsense-free HEP you're referencing above?

Christy is a staff member so she must know what she's talking about, but it's a mystery to me too - I've always understood you had to have Adsense to earn from the HP Earnings Program. Otherwise the only thing you can do is sign up for your own Amazon account (and use your own code in the capsules).

Christy, so you're saying there is some other component of the HEP which you can earn from without Adsense? If so, what is it? I can't see any other program besides HP Ads, HP eBay and HP Amazon - all of which require you to have Adsense.

Ok so even though my status says "Adsense TOS violation" all that means is that I did not have enough content? I do not need to take any other action within Google or Hubpages except to simply reapply when I have the 10-20 hubs? It's the "TOS violation" language that is confusing. If the solution is to simply wait to reapply then that seems simple enough. The link you posted explains the problem regarding lack of content but didn't term that a violation, so just to be clear then my Adsense TOS violation slug in my account tab for revenue sharing status simply really means lack of content?

Hmmm maybe they discriminate based on the content, which they argue is not discrimination it's because advertisers complain when their ads appear on religious content, political content, etc because people might interpret the ads as endorsement.

Welcome to HubPages. I see that the two of you have been Hubpages members for 10 days and 12 days, respectively.

I do not think AdSense does not like religious content, as they have religion-themed products and services that would be happy to advertise on your pages.

I think the problem with both of you is that you have not been HubPages members long enough. AdSense wants you to first prove that not only do you have plenty of content, but that you also have staying power on the web. Wait 30-60 days, while continuing to publish content, and this may be your answer.

I also saw the 120 days recommendation. Another user said they joined, posted a hub, came back six months later and posted a couple more and got accepted right away, so yeah the time frame makes sense, thanks

On browsing the forum, I have become aware that we can't earn on HubPages without AdSense. This is a grim realization for me.I have 29 featured hubs that are generally considered to be of reasonable quality. I applied...

So, the HubPages Ad Program is based on having Google AdSense? Well, I'm one of the thousands who lost their AdSense account without much explanation, so now I can no longer make any money on HubPages? I can no longer...

Why Google Adsense did not approve my account? I already have 10 unique articles here. I have no choice but to remove all of my articles from here. Hello Alexander L Soriano,Thank you for your interest in Google...

Well, that’s nice, very nice. I haven’t got a clue of what I did wrong. And after filling in the online appeal form they told me they had reviewed my account information, taken my feedback into account, but still...

I've heard people talk about turning off Adsense to earn more from the Hubpages program, but I'm really confused about how this works. Does HubPages pay better than Adsense? I thought Adsense was required to make money...
